Inspired by the discussion, I just went to Mediterranean Deli. Salad sampler
with fatush,
chickpea salad, Lebanese grape leaves, and tabouli. Pistachio mamoul for
later.

Mariakakis was once a great place for cheap good-greasy food, now is just a
mediocre
sandwich shop. Unfortunately, Mr. Dunderbak is it in the German category. And
I get
serious cravings for roasted pork knuckle...

But here are my faves:
Pizza - Schiano's in Pleasant Valley shopping center in Raleigh. Don't ask
for brocolli on
your pizza here - this is pure NY style, with a light crispy crust, and no
sugar in the sauce
(which should be illegal, to go back to another recent discussion). I know
everyone raves
about Pepper's, but I just don't like it.
Tacos - Burrito Bunker in CH or Carrburritos.
Southern - Mama Dip's or K&W cafeteria (really excellent - you should try
it!).
Breakfast - Ye Olde Waffle Shoppe in CH (Big Jim's hashbrowns extra crispy)
Elaine's for fancy-ish fusion food
Magnolia Grill for fancyish southern-ish food
Waraji in Raleigh for sushi, etc. I also like the veggie nigiri at Sushi
Blues.
All of the Indian restaurants are terrible.

Why am I hungry? I just ate lunch...
